Worst Service, They dispute every detail.
This insurance company is the very worst that I have ever had the displeasure of dealing with. They treat you not as a customer but as a severe inconvenience and with disrespect. They argued about every mortal damaged item from the outset. I invited them to make their own inspection but they refused, instead arguing and demanding endless photos. The agent was abrupt, awful and a result took five months to resolve a water damage claim that should have been straight forward. As a result my tenant had to live without a serviceable kitchen for nearly 5 months to which they paid around £100 as a 'good will' gesture to him. I would NEVER EVER recommend using this company. As a commercial landlord for over 30 years, and having dealt with a number of escape of water claims, there are very many better companies to deal with than the stress of this one.

Thank you for your feedback, Mr Collier, we addressed the points raised here during the original complaint. We offered a gesture of goodwill, which you accepted.
We also confirmed that regarding your concerns about level of disturbance allowance and cover, we’ve explained that the level of cover you're seeking falls outside the scope of your policy. As a broker, we always challenge insurers when we believe there is coverage, and our position is based on extensive claims experience. We also investigated the level of service that was being provided, and we were very responsive, typically replying on the same day throughout the claim.
We also highlighted where in your policy documents you would be able to find further information in regards to your level of claim, which was on page 4 of the cover overview. If you require these documents again please let us know.
If you're still dissatisfied, you may contact the Financial Ombudsman Service at financial-ombudsman.org.uk.

A Fantastic Experience
A Fantastic Experience from the start. I have a small portfolio of properties and the insurance is due for renewal 5 August 2025. Unfortunately, I have not received a renewal from my current broker or insurer.
I contacted Donna Fletcher at AOIG and she made the whole process so easy, with great advice an honesty. I have decided to place my business with them and would thoroughly recommend Donna from the Dorchester office.

Amazing service from Rob
We had a fantastic experience working with Rob to arrange building insurance for our block of flats. From start to finish, he was incredibly professional, knowledgeable and responsive. He took the time to explain all our options clearly and answered any questions we had with patience and clarity.
Rob secured us an amazing level of cover at a very competitive price, giving us peace of mind that our properties are well protected. The whole process was smooth and stress free, thanks to his expertise and attention to detail.
We wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Rob to anyone looking for reliable and cost effective insurance solutions.

Dan Glass was fantastic!
I needed some insurance pretty urgently for an event and Dan Glass was brilliant! He talked me through my options and gave me some great advice before sorting it all within about half an hour. He made the process super easy and speedy, and relieved a lot of stress! I’d 100% recommend speaking with Dan for your insurance needs!

Anna - Cert CII Claims Handler
Re-posting review after it was removed.
Dealing with Anna is like talking to a brick wall. Very disorganised, does not understand things, gets confused, Total waste
A-One Insurance previously responded to my review: that they made several attempts to contact you to better understand your concerns but this is not true
The review was removed as per request of A-One Insurance as it included Anna's surname. As per Trustpilot guidelines, this has now been removed & review re-posted.

Dear Mr. Phil DB,
Thank you for your feedback. We take all comments seriously, as maintaining a high standard of service is extremely important to us.
Following a review of the case, we can confirm that the policyholder’s claim was settled several weeks ago, in full accordance with the agreed scope of works. The excess was also provided to the policyholder, and the claim has since been closed.
We made several attempts to contact you by phone to better understand your concerns. However, our Claims Manager’s direct dial number was blocked after a couple of tries, which unfortunately limited our ability to reach you. That said, you had our full contact details and could have requested to speak with a member of the team at any point prior to posting your review. Doing so would have allowed us to clarify matters and address your concerns directly.
Additionally, as this review appears to have been submitted by someone other than the named policyholder, we are unable to verify specific details or fully understand the basis of your feedback. We would, however, still welcome the opportunity to speak with you directly if you wish to discuss this further.
In terms of the Trustpilot post, we requested only the removal of your surname in line with data protection requirements. Trustpilot subsequently chose to remove the entire review in accordance with their own terms and policies.
We respect your right to share your opinion, and we view all feedback as a chance to improve. However, in certain cases—such as this—outcomes are driven by external factors beyond our control as a broker, including requirements from insurers, managing agents, or regulatory protocols set by the FCA.
Should you wish to discuss the matter further, we remain available and willing to assist.
Kind regards,
A-One Insurance Group.

Excellent insurance broker
Excellent insurance broker. From the start, they were knowledgeable, patient, and truly took the time to understand my situation. They explained complex business insurance policies in a way that was easy to grasp, and they were always quick to respond to any questions I had.
What really stood out was their dedication to finding the best coverage at the most competitive rate. I’ve never felt pressured, only supported. I wouldn’t hesitate in recommending A-One. Thank you so much.

Disgusting service
Disgusting service! I am absolutely shocked and outraged by the way in which I have been treated by this insurer. Rude service blocking any claim. I feel completely taken advantage of - fobbed off doesn’t even cut it. DO NOT USE THIS COMPANY!
